The woman pondered for a few breaths before speaking,
"There's a special challenge that is almost impossible for you to complete. If you can do it, I'll give you this opportunity to stand by my side."
"Please continue," Shen Ye said.
"Go and settle a troublemaker—an entity causing chaos within its seal. You need to calm it down," the woman said.
It was the only chance.

"I'll give it a try," Shen Ye declared.
"Remember, prevent it from attacking and delay for a while, and you'll succeed—you must delay time."
"Understood."
"Go!" the woman murmured in a low voice.

Only the woman remained in the darkness.
She closed her eyes slightly, as though deep in thought or perhaps thinking of nothing at all.
Wisps of light peeled off of her.
Light.
Fell from her and sank into the depths of darkness.
